It seems more and more that the Republican Party is willing to hurt national defense just to make the president look bad. The D.O.D. is facing huge cuts across the board and now republicans in congress are accusing a fellow republican of being soft on Iran, anti-Semitic, not good for the D.O.D., and now the latest is he abused his own staffers. Is this just the way things are or is a drought in bipartisanship gotten to the point where it is now effecting national security? When is enough bs enough bs?
